What if all tomorow brings is ashes and glass

And I can't tell you child, "this too shall pass"

                                        

If all the world were windswept, cold and gray

                                     

And in the end there's nothing left to say



                               

If all the silicon and best laid plans

                                 

Became the master, and the fall of man

                                      

If all the earth were baked to hard red clay

                             

Not so far from where we are today









Ah well anyway



                          

Come on darlin', swing and sway

                            

Daddy gonna find us a better way

                            

And if that better way don't float

                             

Daddy gonna find us a tighter boat



                              

And if that tighter boat don't sail

                                

Grab a bucket babe, and start to bail

                           

And if that bucket spring a leak

                         

Little miss, we're up the creek

What if fire came raining on the hills

                                     

And mountains made of rusting Coupe De Villes

                                      

And all God's children find themselves alone

                                 

And all the poets took to throwing stones





Guess we're on our own



No way out and no way home



                          

Come on baby, it's time to sing

                               

Daddy gonna grab that old brass ring

                                

And if that old brass ring don't fit

                        

Daddy gonna get to fixin it



                                

And if that old brass ring stays broke

                           

Daddy gonna buy you a billy goat

                            

And if that billy goat don't bark

                                 

Gonna give that goat the old kick start

Jam



                                      

What if all that was left was ashes and glass

                                          

And I can't tell you child, "this too shall pass"

                                          

And if those four horsemen can't be turned away

                              

And everyone's too paralyzed to pray







                     

Too paralyzed to pray

                                   

And the jury's out on judgement day

                                   

And there ain't nothing left to say



Nothing left to say



                   

Come on baby we can fly

                      

Daddy's got a stack of alibi's

                    

Alibi's shot full of holes

                             

Come on child, let's rock and roll



                            

And if that roll takes us to France

                          

Teach them Froggies how to dance

                         

Keep on dancin', sing the tune

                               

We'll be dancin' all around the moon



                           

And if that big old moon go bust

                                  

Well ashes to ashes, baby, dust to dust

                           

Baby it's time for one last rave

                          

Keep on dancin' on our own graves
